A synopsis of what has happened!

Arima Souichirou.

Arima Souichirou (Hokuei Prefectural High School, Class 1-A)

Excellent grades, good at sports,

and a good personality that everyone likes.

In addition, his family is a long line of doctors since the Edo Era.

A real thoroughbred.

Miyazawa Yukino.

Miyazawa Yukino (Hokuei Prefectural High School, Class 1-A)

Good looking, gifted with both intelligence and beauty.

She is a commoner, raised in a middle-class family,

but she also has intelligence and grace comparable to those of Arima.

These two, who captivate those surrounding them,

met in high school.

However, Arima found out

that she was actually quite common the other day!

Sis was careless.

On top of that, he had confessed his love for Sis only a short while ago!

But Sis simply rejected him without a thought.

And right after that, this incident happened!

Sis really was careless.

She is truly doomed.

And due to that grave she dug for herself,

Sis has fallen into a desperate situation!

Now, what'll you do, Miyazawa Yukino?!

And what's gonna happen, Arima Souichirou?!

Their Secret

STOP

You only need to look once to know someone's superiority.

Arima.

Arima knows everything now.

The mistake of my life.

Knowing his intelligence,

he must have guessed everything after seeing me like that.

At school, all that I am is a bluff.

Image, image, image!

Image

Image

Image

An incarnation of image, who lives only for image!

Image

Image

That is me.

He must know that to be the true identity of Miyazawa Yukino.

Now, what'll you do, Arima?

Will you tell everyone and make me a laughing stock?

Will you look at me with contempt?

Or will you sympathize with foolish me,

like the model student that you are?

Why of all people did Arima have to find out?!

No, I don't want him to laugh at me, feel contempt for me,

or feel sympathy for me!

Hey, hey, Miyazawa was looking this way just now.

Could it be me?

Stupid. Like she'd even consider you.

Oh, you think so, too?

But I really like her.

She's so delicate and ladylike.

Maybe I'll confess how I feel to her after all...

That would be completely useless.

You'd only get hurt.

I fearfully awaited my moment of judgment.

Right now, those girls kindly laugh with me,

but by tomorrow, they'll know that they've been deceived...

and they might look upon me with contempt!

Oh, by the way, about that class just now...

That teacher's got really bad handwriting, you know?

And besides, he talks a lot, too.

Yeah, really.

It's like, give us a break.

Yeah, really.

It's exhausting for us just to be in class...

But, many days passed and Arima hadn't said anything to me.

And it doesn't seem like he'd told anyone either...

Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days Many Days

Days passed... Many days passed, and nothing happened.

Finally, after the first week

Could it be... that he let me get away with it?

Optimistic Thought

Convenient Interpretation

That's right! He's got a good upbringing and a good personality!

He doesn't do cheap things like tell people

Positive Thinking

and poke at someone's weakness!

Making Excuses

So that's it! All right! I'm so lucky!

Guess I got off easy!

And I was relieved.

Oh, I have to drop by the library.

But a terrible conspiracy was awaiting me at this time.

Who could have possibly predicted that?

Your expression is loose.

What am I, the Devil?

OH

OH

OH

Did I surprise you?

OH

OH

OH

OH

I'll bet.

I saw something I wasn't supposed to, after all.

I was completely deceived, too.

To think that the innocent Miyazawa was actually like this.

I bet everyone'll be surprised.

It'll be sensational.

I wonder how they'd react.

Would they laugh?

Would they throw up their hands?

What is it, Miyazawa?

Don't...

Don't tell anyone.

Please don't tell anyone.

∞

Super-Humiliating

x10 Irritation

Pl...Please don't tell anyone.

Okay, sure.

All right!

Here you go.

Do those for me.

Within the day.

Well, later. I've got club.

Who the hell was that freaky guy?!

Class 1-A

Then... Arima, translate that part.

Yes, ma'am.

Her breath was faint and she seemed to want to say something,

but she seemed to be exhausted and to be suffering greatly,

so no matter what may come after this, the Emperor...

(Parts omitted)

Now, next... Miyazawa, interpret this.

Yes, ma'am.

Here, they are said to be husband and wife...

...in order to express the climax of emotions.

Back then, death at court was considered to be a defilement,

and no one was allowed to die there, except for the Emperor.

And the Emperor tried to keep the consort by his side and...

(Parts omitted)

Yes, very good.

You were both quite splendid.

Wow....

They raise their voices in admiration and praise...

None of them know...

that I am now Arima's servant!

My tragedy had started after that.

Reenactment

Good evenin'!

Hey, you're doing it, you're doing it.

Good work.

Wow, it's perfect!

You're done already!

You're amazing!

That's what I'd expect of you!

You know!

What's the meaning of this?!

Why do I have to do this for you?!

That's because...

I've grasped your weakness,

so I thought that I may as well use it...

I... I... I... I know that!

Don't say it so bluntly!

That's called blackmailing.

Aren't you ashamed?

Because, what else am I supposed to do?

I'm too busy and you're perfect for doing the work for me.

Bastard.

You're going to be useful for me.

Well, I won't force you.

If you don't want to, just say so.

That is... if you have that kind of courage.

You scheming bastard!

Image

What a blunder.

To think he had another side to him, too.

Putting on a show and proud of it, full of confidence, 15 years passed.

I have never been so humiliated!

Dammit! What's with that bastard?!

Dammit!

But you should be grateful, Sis.

Right?

He's teaching you not only the worthlessness of image,

but also the harsh reality that there's always someone better than you.

Right?

He's not a nice guy like that!

Dammit!

But right now, I have no means of escaping his trap.

All I could do...

was to curse my own fate.

But it was too late for that, too.

Furthermore, Third Day

And on top of that, the Fourth Day

Now, every day, I'm buried in Arima's work.

Already 7:00 at night

Did you know about that math teacher, Yoshida?

All his teeth are dentures.

No, really?!

Please clean the dirt off your spikes and shoes before entering. No matter how much we clean, it's dirty the next day. Please be considerate of those who do the cleaning.

American football, soccer, and rugby club members!

You're terrible, making a girl do so much work.

Pretending to cry won't work.

Darn.

You're actually tough and strong, right?

My! Just shut up, why don't you?!

Bingo

What's this work for?

Making plans for the school trip committee.

Gah, you're even doing stuff like that?!

Having been made to help, I know now.

Arima truly has a lot on his hands.

Class committee. Volunteer club committee. School trip committee.

You're gonna die soon.

It seems like I stand out somehow.

Yeah, that's the hard part.

With your looks and your brain,

you'd think you could lead a better life.

Hmm, I see. You think so?

Well, it's a great help because I've got you.

What am I? Spot the dog?

Yup, Spot.

Arima, you were student body president in middle school, right?

Yeah. What about you?

I did it, too.

Then you must've had a lot of work to do.

No, not particularly.

Huh? Why not?

"What'll I do? I can't do this much work."

I said that and a guy did it for me!

It's a con job!

And this is what you're actually like.

Y- You're the same, too!

Huh? No, I'm not.

I'm normally just like I always am.

The way I am right now is because I'm following your lead.

My— It's my fault?!

I don't believe it!

But it's the truth!

It's completely dark outside already.

Miyazawa, you hungry?

Hungry? Yeah.

Then I'll treat you to something.

For once.

In the end,

Arima's perfect, somehow.

I wanna eat steak.

Dummy.

Where... does it come from?

Up until yesterday,

there was nothing.

Up until just now...

Look, look.

Those two.

It wasn't anywhere, but...

That rumor must be true after all.

Yeah, it's gotta be.

Awake?

I just got here after club.

You shouldn't fall asleep.

Suddenly, he seemed special.

Arima seemed special to me.

Good Luck and Bad Luck go Hand in Hand.

Chapter

Good Luck and Bad Luck go Hand in Hand.

I wonder what it was with Arima that time.

I wonder what this sensation is.

I don't understand this feeling very well.

It feels kind of hazy and restless somehow.

My first experience of it.

Well, now...

Thi... This couldn't be... the "love" that everyone talks about?!

Crush

Is this that "love"or "adoration" or "crush" thing?!

Adoration

It couldn't be! Not me!

How idiotic. I can't believe it.

It still feels like I'm lacking a sense of realism.

But still...

What'll I do?

Miyazawa

Let's eat!

Come to think of it, you come home pretty late these days, Sis Yukino.

Huh?

Oh, I have work to do for the class committee.

I see. Is that all?

Yeah.

Oh. Then you're wrong after all.

Hmm... but still...

Wha...What?

What?

What are you talking about?

It's strange, no matter how you think of it.

You suddenly started coming home late just recently.

And you used to tell us everything about high school, but not anymore.

And above all, you don't wear your sweatshirt anymore!

Sis, you have a boyfriend, don't you?

Wha...Wha...Wha...Wha...

What?!!

I love you more than anything in the world.

Of course, I love Tsukino and Kano more than anything, too.

But you chose another man

over your Father, who's so full of love for you?!

W-W-What're you babbling about?!

Hey, she's bothered by it.

So, you have one after all.

I want to see a picture.

I wonder if he's good-looking.

Most likely a handsome boy.

Be...Better looking than me?

Without a doubt.

After all, Yuki cares a lot about looks.

I wonder who she took after.

I said, it's work.

Yukino!

Pero

I believe in you!

Really, they don't even know what I'm going through.

If I'd just met him normally and came to feel this way,

I wouldn't have any problems.

That's right.

I'm troubled.

Because...

Arima is...

Hey, Miyazawa.

You know, are you and Arima...

Dating?

Because you're together a lot recently...

Oh, but I don't mean it in a weird way.

You both really suit each other...

...and everyone envies you, but everyone feels it's okay if it's you.

And I was wondering how it was really.

True, he confessed his feelings for me, but...

You know, a brave girl asked Arima about that, too.

And then, she said Arima just laughed and didn't answer at all.

I knew it.

I've been thinking about it for a while.

Where had that confession gone inside Arima?

After that, Arima's never touched on that again.

I knew, but...

I thought so, but...

Arima loved me before he found out what I was really like.

Not the real me.

I fell in love with Arima after I found out what he was like, but...

Beware of Fire

Miyazawa!

Sorry, would you stay behind today, too?

It won't take too much time today, so you won't have to stay late.

I see.

So, that already completely disappeared out of Arima.

Oh? You're still here.

I saw the classroom lights, so...

Did it take that long?

Sports Fest Task Committee

They're done already.

Oh.

I'm going to quit doing this.

I won't do it anymore.

I'm not going to help you.

But then, you'll have a lot of problems, right?

I don't care...

if you tell them.

Wait.

What're you mad about?

I'm not mad.

Let go.

You are mad.

Getting mad so suddenly...

If there's a reason, say it.

I won't understand otherwise.

It doesn't matter.

Yes, it does.

Let go!

I said, let go!

I'm just sick of being used!

Miyazawa!

I'd forgotten, because we'd been talking like we were friends.

Arima's only using my weakness.

It's terrible!

When he found out what I was really like, his attitude completely changed.

And he used me without hesitation!

It's terrible!

So I'm going to put an end to this!

W-What?!

Why're you chasing me?!

Because you're running away!

Don't follow me! Don't follow me!

Like hell!

Sports: 10

This is dangerous, so don't try this at home.

Why do you have to run with everything you got like that?!

Likewise, Sports: 10

I said, wait! Why you little...!

This could cause some misunderstanding...

You're still gonna run?!

Didn't you scrape something?!

Show me your face! Your face...

So I'm a really weird girl!

I'm all show and I'm spoiled and a liar!

I'm calculating and I'm greedy!

I'm sure I disappointed you quite a bit!

But still... why did your attitude change?!

Am I such a worthless person if I'm not acting elegant?!

I hate you!

Don't touch me!

I'm sorry.

Am I that weird?

Don't I have any worth if I'm not a model student?

That's not true.

The way you really are is fun and I like it.

F-Fun...

No, not in a weird way...

I never had any intentions of telling anyone to begin with.

It wasn't that I really wanted to use you.

I just wanted an excuse...

...to talk with you.

I thought that surely, it would be fun.

It was fun.

Because I'd never talked to anyone like this before.

But...

I didn't think that it was hurting you.

I'm sorry.

I won't tell you to help me anymore.

I see.

It wasn't that he didn't care about me at all.

I'm glad.

I cried.

From that day onward, Arima and I became friends who shared a secret.

Class 1-A

Hmm, so you're an only child.

In the end, she's helping out as a friend.

But then, you sort of seem like it.

What about you?

I've got two kid sisters.

Hmm, are kid sisters cute?

Well, to be exact, Arima misunderstood things a little.

Yeah!

They're really impudent and super-cute!

I'll show them to you sometime.

Impudent and cute?

He thinks the reason I got mad was because he made me do work.

Well, that's okay.

For the time being, I know that my existence is special to Arima.

Even if it isn't love...

But even I was tricked.

I didn't think you were this sort of person, too.

You're right.

You're right. I'm surprised myself.

You might not believe it, but I really didn't know there was a me like this.

...until I met you.

Why do you bother me so much?

Why do I follow your lead so much?

I was drawn toward you more and more,

and soon, I was a different me.

Is that a good thing?

Or is it a bad thing?

A synopsis of what's to come!

The two have made peace. Will they go straight to being lovey-dovey?!

But they weren't allowed to!

Arima's attitude suddenly becomes cold.

Oh, will Sis just get rejected at this rate?!
